SkyHigh, I enjoy your perspectives even though I dont always agree with you( however, I have never been an airline pilot, so I cannot really tell you that you are flat-out wrong). I am just interested in your life backgorund. I am not trying to get personal, but when did you get interested in aviation, what was your path, and what caused you in the end to hate it? I know you have already probably answered all of these questions before, but I was just hoping you could just give a little bibliography of yourself. It also fascinates me that you own a plane that you havent flown in 3 years!!! While im sure there are more people than we all realize who own planes and never fly them, I speculate that you arent totally ready to give up aviation because you held onto that plane. I am not interogating you here, I just want to here your story. I know you have a lot of knowledge because you seem to be able to weigh in on almost any subject related to aviation.
